This location holds a special place for both the company's history and the internet itself. The University of Utah, based there, was one of the original four Arpanet locations and has educated founders of numerous technology companies. In addition to this latest expansion, Cloudflare plans to have facilities in 200 cities and 100 countries worldwide by the end of 2018, with 95% of the world's population living in a country with a Cloudflare data center.
